The DMN areas (left transverse temporal gyrus and right superior temporal gyrus), areas that are usually attenuated during cognitive tasks, were positively correlated with depression (LTTG-WM with MADRS, r=0.45, p=0.036), VCAM-1 (with RSTG-WM, r=0.53, p=0.01), SDI (with RSTG-WM, rs=0.56, p=0.005) and current use of biological medication (with RSTG-WM, r=0.60, p=0.003). Here, VCAM1 is linked to major depressive disorder.
